I loved this tea flavour prior to Tazo even offering it as a purchase item (Starbucks was the only place that had it) now that you can purchase it for home I do often especially in the spring and summer and make iced tea! It’s sweet and fruity and a great pinky red colour and doesn’t need to be sweetened in my opinion.
It pairs well with a little soda added to it or fresh mint which I’ve done for dinner parties.

Always have loved Lindt chocolates. Had a chance to go to a Lindt store and ended up buying a bunch of the truffles. I bought a bunch of the coconut ones and they were ridiculously good. Even my friend who is not a huge coconut lover enjoyed them. It was smooth and not sickly sweet like some coconut and chocolate can be. I will be buying these again next time I am at the Lindt store. -

My husband and I work long hours and often make supper based on having it made in 20 minutes. We shop mostly at Superstore (Loblaws) and we like to try out their new PC line of products each season.
We grabbed a PC World of Flavours Pork Carnitas, it is a marinated pork but for $10.00. You have to cook it either in the oven or in a slow cooker. We cooked it in the slow cooker as we made it for tacos one night for supper.
We followed the directions and it turned out great! It has lots of flavour and the package makes quite a lot of meat. We had it for 2 meals and happy with both. We have bought 2 more since then and we more than likely will buy a few more before summer's end and freeze them for future dinners.

I have used the Neutrogena hydro boost moisturizer for a while and after my vacation I noticed my skin was quite dry from being out in the sun a lot. I had to pick up more moisturizer and noticed that there was a sheet mask option available. I bought one to try and was pleasantly surprised. I don't often find these face sheet masks to work well. It just looks funny and I end up with a ton of slimy goop on my face.
This mask was different. It was light and absorbed into my skin. I left it on for 20 mins the package stated 15 and I noticed that my skin felt hydrated and not sticky.
I plan to buy a few to have on hand. They were quite inexpensive based on other sheet masks I have tried.

I was sent the new power bar plant based protein based bars. Out of the 3 flavours I really liked the peanut and dark chocolate flavour the best.
The sweetness level was not high like the others. It was satisfying and worked well with my busy schedule when I’m on deliveries.

I really enjoyed taste testing the new power bar plant based protein bars. The cashew salted caramel and dark chocolate was tasty. I found it a little to crunchy for my liking but I really liked the flavour.
The sweetness is a little much for me. It tasted more like a chocolate candy bar to me because I don’t eat a lot of sweet things.
These bars were a tasty free product to try in my lunches.

Living in a condo we don’t have a yard to do any gardening in. So we have a potted garden on our patio. We have used promix for vegetables as we usually grow tomatoes and herbs and have used it a couple of years now.
We have always had great results. It’s a great option instead of heavy dirt/potting soil.
It absorbs water well and holds it so you don’t need to water all the time.
We got lots of tomatoes from our plants and the herbs were bigger than normal and got a good yield from them.

I received my product review of the power bar plant protein bars in 3 flavours.
I really like a granola bar or protein bar for busy days and was excited to try out these as they are plant based.
The texture was great I like crunchy and slight chew to my bars and there was lots of nuts which I love.
The sweetness was a little overpowering in a noticeable feeling on my tongue and back of throat. It could very well be me as I have cut out a lot of sugars in my diet over the last 6 months and find lots of foods too sweet now.
I felt that these bars were satisfying in the snack department and for when you need something to tie you over.

I’ve recently started to change my diet and eliminate wheat and refined sugar so I’ve been experimenting with almond flour as a replacement.
So far out of all the ones I’ve tried Bobs Red Mill has the best taste and texture. It’s fresh tasting and not oily like some I’ve tried.
The only down side is that it’s a little expensive for the amount but I have found it at Safeway in larger bags for a good deal so I stock up when I find it.

I received a sample of these wipes in the mail and I typically don't buy them as I find them wasteful/ environmentally damaging. But I figured I'd use them to see if they were worth the hype.
I was pleasantly surprised that these wipes took off waterproof makeup and mascara. I usually have to do 2 goes over my eyes with a waterproof removing lotion to get the same results as these wipes.
They did not feel greasy and they had a very delicate scent that wasn't perfumey. I enjoyed using them and would think about getting them when I travel or am at the cottage.
They would be great for those who can be lazy at times and don't wash their face before bed. It would be simple enough to leave them beside your bed for just those moments.
